hello guys

i am using latest verson of limewire pro.

and i am using cable net. thatthe internet which coming through cable and we are using some client to connect to the internet .

using this type of internet my lime wire not connectiing.
it is showing me the message that you dont have active net connection or firewall blocking your net.


but i kept my firewall fully off.

even i tried to connect limewir using dialup connection.
and its get connected excellently .

and latest java is also insatlled.
what should i do?

Sounds like it is probably to do with your cable set up. Possibly your modem/router.

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Whilst using your cable connection: Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your isp provider (Internet Service Provider)?
10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.

BTW you shouldn't go without a firewall. Configure it to allow LW full access: Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

even i asked my service provider that he is blocking this software or p2p programs. but he says no he is not blocking.

please help me .

I can't see what might be stopping it connecting.

Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 in Fixes for Limewire (sample at bottom of page.)

Then after you open LW, set it to not connect on startup. Go to LW's menu, Tools>Options>Connections.
At least initially, also set Tools>Options>Speed & tick Disable Ultrapeer Capabilities. Don't forget to press apply button.

Then go to menu bar, File > Connect. Give it a good 30+ mins to try to connect.
